Now I want to upgrade the machine to the 2.2-960612-SNAP , whih carries ccd as pseudo-device. The ccd version in this SNAP is 1.13. Is it possible to use old ccd drive with this release ? Will system recognize it or I have to "newfs" ccd drives ? The machine serves Usenet news and I can't afford to loose whole news partition :( I vaguely remember something about new version of CCD being somehow incompatible with the old ones. The same time I heard that AHA2940 code is now much more robust and VM system was also cleaned out quite bit. AHA2940 though is the main concern - resets and timeouts on SCSI bus are really annoying. Is it possible to install ccd v 1.7 in 2.2-960612-SNAP ? ( w/o activating pseudo-driver one)?
